Los pasos de López is the last novel of Jorge Ibargüengoitia and was originally published in Spain under the name of Los conspiradores.

"Los conspiradores tells the first story that interested me in my life," says Jorge Ibergüengoitia. "It's the history of the conspiracy with which began the independence of Mexico, and that they told me as a story at the age of six and fascinated me. Then I studied it at school and got bored, because the heroes bore me. At last I did a play, quite heroic too, and I ended up writing this novel. " A novel against history, because "history", he says, "makes things stiff."
